It was an independant test of cutting rope I believe.ssmtbracer wrote:Where can I find the full results for that test.
My understanding is that the CATRA test is the most scientific method of testing edge holding where a piece of steel is held and material passes over the blade measuring degradation. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Edit: some info I found interesting via search. I think the second post has a link to the rope cutting test in the thread.

Initial cut will be better with teeth but not by so great a difference.
Some steels serrated, for some reason will more than double the plain edge results in total card cut.

The last group of results you listed went like this:
440C 360-400
VG10 500-510
S30V 550-580
S90V 750
ZDP 189 750

We would greatly appreciate any info you would like to part with that you don't feel is proprietary, or controversial in some way. Thanks. *Joe
